Looking for support



Recommended Posts

I am pre op and have completed all preoperative classes and tests. All that is left is getting this 15 pounds off to hit goal weight. I'm looking for support and ideas. Anyone else in the same position and want to be a support buddy? Help hold each other accountable and offer suggestions to benefit each other in this journey?

Let me know!

Like you I'm trying to get the weight off and finished all the requirements. I'm waiting for a date of surgery. I have found that walking my dog 3 times a day has helped me get moving. Mr Homer has been losing weight which he needed to do and I am down 7 lbs.

My surgery date is November 9. I've never had a goal weight. They just told me to maintain, because I'm on the borderline of not qualifying. That makes me very nervous in terms of the insurance.

Thank you I appreciate it. Some days it's just so hard bc I get frustrated the weight needed to lose pre op isn't coming off like I'd like. Did you reach goal weight already? Any suggestions?

I double my goal loss by walking every day for at least 2 miles or 60 minutes and keeping my calories under 1600. I don't eat anything from a can or box, no wheat, potatoes, or corn. The only thing frozen I will eat is veggies or Arctic Zero, I get 60-80 on my Protein count and I keep my sodium below 1,800. My diet and routine are pretty strict.
